Circuit Operation

System Outline

- The SRS airbag are provided for the driver and front passenger. The SRS airbags have been designed to help reducing the shocks to the heads and chests of the driver and front passenger in the event of a severe frontal impact collision as supplements to the seat belts.

This system is a 3-sensor type airbag system to detect the impact during a front collision using the center airbag sensor assembly and airbag sensor front LH, RH and to make the airbag system and pretensioner operate as well.

- In this system, a front side collision is detected by the side airbag sensor front LH, RH in order to simultaneously deploy the side and curtain shield airbags. A rear side collision is detected by the side airbag sensor rear LH, RH in order to deploy only the curtain shield airbag.

- Roll sensing of curtain shield airbags control has been adopted in order to deploy the curtain shield airbags and the pretensioners for the driver and front passenger, in the event that the vehicle rolls over.

A roll sensing of curtain shield airbags cutoff SW is provided on the driver side of the instrument panel to enable the driver to disable this system.

- Dual-stage SRS airbags system, that controls the airbag inflating output optimum by judging the extent of impact and seat position (Driver seat), has been used for the driver and front passenger airbags.

- In accordance with the adoption of the dual-stage SRS airbag system, a seat position sensor has been established for the driver seat.

- This system has adopted a fuel cut control that stops the fuel pump when the airbag is deployed.
